Notes:
The mesonephric duct was studied in female camel fetuses (Gärtner's duct). All fetuses were well developed, aged from two to three months. The female internal genital organs were sectioned at 10 μ and stained with hematoxylin-eosin or Van Gieson's stain.In camel fetuses, the duct is usually lined with one layer of cuboidal or columnar epithelium which may be ciliated. Degeneration and cavitation occur in the lower vaginal part, which finally obliterates the previous structure, or changes it to many layers. These two processes occur in succession at different levels of the vaginal portion and are not uniform stages along the whole duct. The appearance of the duct is variable at different levels and at the same level in different ducts. The two ducts may leave the submucosa superiorly and enter the musculature of the vagina at different levels. No glands opening into the mesonephric duct were observed. The upper (mesosalpingeal) part is smaller in caliber than the lower and seems to be immune to the obliteration and cavitation mentioned.
